Sweet rigs :)

Also, my rig DOES have a lift! I've got LC coils out back and Daystar spacers in front, which are soon going to be replaced with OME 883's. Just for reference, here's what I started with (what a lowrider!)...

Empty your 4Runner looks pretty damn good, I really like the tires and what you've done with it so far. Thought about getting clear corners & clear signal lens? That would make your ride looks even better!

Glad you like my Runner too! My issue with the Daystars is that they're causing my front stock springs to sag. I'm getting about 1.5" lift out of them and they were 2.5" new. So, to get rid of the dragster look, I'm going to go another direction soon.

Those are Bridgestone Revo tires. They are excellent tires, I have a set myself. They have never let me down through the rain and snow that we see here in IN. They do okay off-road unless you get in the real muddy stuff, and they don't have the sidewall strength that the BFGs or even the Nittos but all in all not bad. The way the tread is designed is great for water/rain so IMHO, the BFG and the Nitto can't touch it in wet weather handling. I do 90% on-road driving and the rest off and they suit me great.

I guess my next tires are going to be the REVOs. I have read tons of tire tech here and my final two came down to the Nittos or the REVOs. The tires I have now are the Alenzas and they have not failed me in any conditon. I am in the same boat as Skrillah, I do 90% on-road driving. The Alenzas are really quiet on-road, so I was thinking of getting those again but those REVOs are really meaty.

Thanks! - Ya, the tires are the Revo Duelers 285/75/16. I love 'em as they are super quiet and handle great on the road. Off road they are the best I've had (but I don't bury my truck either). With the OME lift they work well together.
They rims are American eagle. I left the ugly chrome center caps off and left the black dust cap covers exposed. The rear drums naturally do not have dust covers so I ordered 2 more for the rear, did some modifications and they fit great. Now the front and rear match and I like the way it looks. I thought the chrome center caps were too much bling.
